ROCHESTER — Police have recovered the motorized wheelchair that was stolen from a man with a disability on Tuesday morning.

Police Capt. Paul Toussaint said Thursday that charges against the person who allegedly stole the wheelchair are pending, but the arrest warrant had not yet been signed.

He said Thursday morning a police officer found the wheelchair in the back of a truck, and police are now working on returning the wheelchair back to its owner.

According to police, a “disabled gentleman” left his motorized wheelchair at a residence near the corner of Quail Drive and Rochester Hill Road, after being dropped off by a COAST bus. When he returned about 20 minutes later, the wheelchair was not there.

After the theft, police were reporting that the wheelchair was definitely stolen, but that they had no leads on the case, until an officer found the wheelchair, which is red with black armrests, on Thursday morning.

Toussaint said more information will be available when an arrest warrant is issued for the suspect.
